Hi all,

Hi,

Can we have a string freeze break for gnome-software to add two new
strings so we can fix a bug in the UI on the ‘Installed’ page?

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-software/-/merge_requests/657

The strings are “In Progress” and “Applications” as headers in the updates view.

I can’t think of a better way to fix this bug, short of reverting the
change which introduced it (which would regress us on a different bug,
and cause 40.1 and 41.alpha to diverge, which would make maintenance a
little harder). I can’t find similar-enough strings which already exist
in gnome-software to use instead.

Accompanying issue:

Looks reasonable, 1/2 from i18n.
